| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
These days, it is crucial for international companies to gain support from e-discovery vendors, - legal technology companies - in dealing with international civil disputes. E-discovery vendors assist international corporations in following ways: preservation of electronic records; proper access to electronically stored information; and effective use of electronic evidence. This research aims to consider potential legal reform that enables e-discovery vendors, and other relevant vendors offering electronic technology, to get involved in civil litigation in Japan. It has identified several legal issues related to the submission of electronic evidence that belongs to those vendors and has made proposals on how to tackle those issues.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、裁判所と当事者との電子的保存情報交換時の技術的な側面での手続支援、証拠調べ段階における情報の取捨選択、提出などの作業工程での当事者の補助者としての手続関与、さらには、高度に専門的・技術的なIT関連の企業間紛争において、当事者または弁護士の補助者として訴訟の開始、審判対象の選択、訴訟終了の判断などの訴訟管理の具体的な方策を助言するなどの役割が民事訴訟周辺ベンダーに期待されるとの成果を得た。これらの成果は、民事裁判IT化の本格実施が目指される今日、その現実的な担い手としての技術者の手続法上の役割を明確化することに資するものであり、民事訴訟法理論の基礎的研究としての意義が認められる。
